Hundreds of children held by cult

GENERAL SANTOS CITY – Police in Sultan Kudarat have started looking for a cave where hundreds of children were allegedly being held captive by a cult.

An account by a 14-year-old boy who claimed to have escaped from the cult prompted authorities to search for the cave, possibly located in the mountains near Lutayan town.

The cult is believed responsible for the disappearance of children in various places, including South Cotabato, Sarangani and this city.

The boy, whose identity and address was withheld for security reasons, was brought to the Lutayan police station by residents approached by the child after fleeing from the cult.

He told policemen that he was kidnapped several weeks ago by a group of men. They covered his nose with a substance-laced cloth and he lost consciousness.

When he woke up, the boy found himself in a dark cave filled with children, who were also kidnapped.
